Assessments
In the 6th grade, students build conceptual understanding of and procedural proficiency with ratios, rates, rational numbers, operations with an emphasis on division, and expressions/equations applying this knowledge to solve real world & mathematical problems including geometry and statistics.

Formative and/or Summative Assessments,
Reengagement & Reassessment
Ratios & Proportional Relationships Focused Interim Assessment Block (FIAB): Consider giving instead of chapter tests or quizzes.
Consider using this assessment throughout instruction in an unstandardized administation - whole class, small group or select items individually.
Ratios & Proportional Relationships FIAB Reengagement Day: Do instead of a review day before the assessment.
Reengagement One Pager See document.
Reengagement Template (One Slide) See slides.
Need to Do a Class Review for your Next Big Summative Assessment? Instead of wasting time and boring students with a comprehensive review, provide those notes and try something different instead. Rather than reviewing first and then doing a practice test, consider giving the practice test first and then reengaging around the results for a more targeted and engaging review.
There are no Interim Assessment Blocks for this unit.
Consider using a Focused IAB.
Cumulative Assessment #1: Site / teacher created. Please submit to the design team, email dmattoon@hemetusd.org
To save time in this relatively short unit, consider giving the Stats & Probability FIAB instead of any quizzes, chapter tests or site-created cumulative assessment.

Guidelines for Creating your Own Assesment in Claim 1
6.RP.A.3a Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios.
6.RP.A.3b Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed?
6.RP.A.3c Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent.
6.RP.A.3d Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.
Embed with 6.RP.1.3, 6.RP.A.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”
Embed with 6.RP.1.3, 6.RP.A.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”
